I have never seen one with SS, but maybe they removed that part in Germany.

For those that don’t know

So the SS Anne from Pokémon was a Nazi cruise ship?

I see them on the back of full size computer cases and on docks. They will often be one SS port on the top. I had no idea what it meant before now.

I looked at two Dell laptops and a Geekom mini PC, all bought in Germany, and they all have the SS symbol.

Came here disappointed to see no one said anything about Black D inside white P

Edit: yes, I have the humour of a 16 yo

Why not label the ports and cables with:

  • 10Gb/s
  • 2.1Amps
  • 1080p at 60hz

It’s future proof and doesn’t need a decoder manual other than basic literacy. It can be in whatever language the fucking keyboard is. If you want to be redundant but even more clear:

  • Universal Serial Bus -> (this hole right here)
  • Speed: 40Gb/s
  • Power: 2.4Amps
  • Audio/Video: 4K at 120Hz or 8K at 30Hz

Amps are not power

So do like they did for video and put 2A @ 5V on the label. Now you have power.

Edit: clarity

But if its USB PD it can be more than 5V though.

What is the difference between USA and USB?

One connects to all your devices and accesses your data, the other is a hardware standard.

One gives you power, the other does everything it can to make sure you never do.
